Bubbles and Cheetos

Yesterday, we went over to Becky's house for a little playdate!




Becky made yummy italian club sandwiches. I had made a comment to her that I hated chicken salad after she suggested she might make that, and I still feel bad about it. :( We all brought sides and desserts!


Addi has been obsessed with cupcakes lately, so she finally got to have one. She says "cupcake" about 10 times a day!


All the kids had a blast blowing bubbles,but of course, Addi tried to eat hers!




At some point, Addi snuck outside with a bag of cheetos. I think they kids thought that was a great idea! Haha!


Such a fun day!

Farmer's Market

Today, we went with our playgroup to the Farmer's Market! It is in the Rivermarket area every Tuesday and Saturday. I put Addi in her stroller and we went to work! I got sweet corn, a tomato, yellow squash, peaches and Arkansas strawberries!!! Addi ate ALOT of them before we even got done. She has been repeating everything lately and she kept saying, "berries?" "berries?" So cute! I think I say this everytime, but I really love the group of girls in our playgroup. We have a really great group of kids and moms and I enjoy hanging out with them so much!





Sweet Harper and Addi. They look so much alike!

Silly girls!

This is Addi's new summer dress. I am in love with it!

Sweet girls!


I've already asked Josh if we can eat just vegetables one night this week. I don't think that's going to go over so well! :)

Hope y'all had a great day!

Addi-19 Months

Addi you are 19 months! Well, almost 19 1/2 months. :) I thought instead of doing a what you are doing post,I would do a typical day for you post! I want to be able to look back and remember how we spent our days.

You usually wake up around 9-9:30. Some days it's later, some days it's earlier, but that's your usual wakeup time. You're always in such a happy mood and I just love that!


The first thing we do is get you a bottle of milk. We usually just sit on the couch and watch Sesame Street or Mickey Mouse Clubhouse, depending on what time you woke up.


After about 10 minutes, we eat breakfast. Your favorite breakfast is a waffle with some kind of fruit.


Depending on what day it is, depends on what we do after breakfast. Some days we stay home, some days we have playgroup and sometimes you are at your Grandpa and Lila's house.


On the days we stay home, we usually go outside and play if it's not raining. You LOVE your playground and could stay out there all day if you could.



After playing, we come inside for lunch. You are picky about what meats you eat so lunch either consists of turkey pepperoni and cheese, nuggets, or a grilled cheese.


After lunch, it's naptime. You go down pretty easy as long as you have your cow and your paci. Last week your cow was lost for a couple of hours and you had a hard time going to sleep. Naps usually last around 2 hours. In this time, I check emails, blog, work on orders or clean.



After nap, we eat a snack. This is usually yogurt, goldfish or fruit or crackers and cheese.


We play inside for a little while until you get restless and want to go outside. You have been really enjoying coloring lately. I do have to keep a close eye on you so you don't eat the crayons! Ha!


Soon after that, your Daddy comes home and he takes over playing with you so I can get dinner ready. We eat as a family and then y'all go play some more while I clean up dinner.


8:00 is bathtime! Josh is in charge of bathtime and while he is doing that, I pick up toys, and lay out Addi's pj's and tidy up her room.


After bath is lotion, pj's, storytime and then bed. We don't rock you anymore, we just lay you down and you go down without a fight usually, but sometimes we can hear you singing to yourself over the monitor.

So that is our typical day!


Also, Addi you started counting this past week and your vocabulary has really picked up. You say new things everyday and we are just amazed at how fast you are learning and growing. We love you!!!

Zoo Playdate!

Last Thursday, our playgroup went to the zoo! We had a blast and it was such a nice day.









Fun times!

Hadley's Party and Mother's Day Weekend!

This is going to be the longest post ever, because we have had a FULL weekend!!! On Friday, we went to lunch with our good friend, Michele! We went to Zaza's for yummy salads and then to Cupcakes on Kavanaugh for a little treat! Addi was so cute sitting in the big chair eating her cupcake.


After our fun lunch, we packed up the car and headed to Tulsa! Addi slept for three hours in the car which was wonderful.

Once we got to Janelle and Andrew's, we let the girl's play in the backyard before dinner. They LOVED the bubbles!




We ate dinner at Tally's that night. Oh my word. If you are ever NEAR Tulsa, you have to eat here. It is SO good. There was SO much food and it was all so good.

Addi and Audrey read bedtime stories together. Sweetness.

Saturday was Hadley's second birthday!!! After breakfast at Tally's, I told y'all it was good, we got to work on decorating. Well, Janelle had done most of it, but we just helped with the finishing touches. She did such a great job, she should really be a professional party planner!







We tried to put Addi up in the tree with Hadley and Audrey, but she was not happy until Josh got up there with her!



We all had such a great time at the party, but man was it HOT!!! It felt like 90 degrees outside!








The drive home was an adventure. Addi despite having no nap, not getting enough sleep the night before and playing all day in the sun, only slept for 45 minutes.

And....our tire blew out about 10 miles from home! And our car didn't have a spare! Only a flat tire repair kit. So weird! So we had some friends pick us up and take us home and got AAA to tow our car. Frustrating!!!

Today, Josh made me breakfast since it was Mother's Day. So nice. My gift was a Keurig!!! I have been wanting one of these for so long and I love it! When we got to church, the nursery workers gave all the moms flowers. So sweet!!! We headed to Searcy after church to have lunch at Josh's dad's house. Addi LOVES it over there so she had a blast.




They just got a new puppy and Addi was in love!



So blessed to be this girl's momma!



I just loved all your sweet comments on my last post. So sweet. I hope y'all had a great weekend!!!
